What’s more beautiful than two supportive male best friends? Well, two really attractive male best friends who also happen to be English and extremely talented. Yup, that’s about as awesome as a best friend coupling as you can get and Tom Hiddleston and Benedict Cumberbatch have all of those things. Actually, I can go on and on about this lovely pair, and as a Bustle reader, I’m sure you’ve noticed we kind of have a massive crush on both of them. What’s not to love? I took it upon myself to answer this question in the best way I could, by recounting the cutest Tom Hiddleston and Benedict Cumberbatch friendship moments over the past four years, all while giving me complete license to gush at their cuteness unabashedly.

Since meeting on the set of the epic film War Horse in 2010, they began a friendship that spawned one of the largest and fervid fan bases of recent years. It is not an easy competition in the Internet fangirl world, but the combined charm and beauty of these two men made it look so easy. Earlier this month, Cumberbatch was name Tumblr’s “most reblogged actor of 2014” for the second year in a row, and I venture to say that his boy Hiddleston was not too far behind. There is a treasure trove of beautiful friendship moments these two have shared with the world and here are just a few to set your hearts ablaze once more.
